Poor picture
• Press the Main power button on the TV.

properly?

- Has the aerial cable been damaged?
- Is the aerial pointing in the right direction?
- Is the aerial itself faulty?
Buttons on front of the TV do not work
• Switch the CHILD LOCK function off.
• If the TV or aerial suffer interference from
other equipment, stripes or noise may appear
in the picture. Move any equipment which
can cause interference away from the TV.
(see page 12.)
